Rowing At CrossFit Glasgow

By |2015-01-24T10:39:17+00:00January 24th, 2015|WOD|

On the 18th of April this year CrossFit Glasgow will be joined by Shane Farmer for a one day seminar on the fundamentals of rowing technique. Shane is a four times CrossFit Games Competitor (team), three times Regionals division winner (team), an international rowing coach and member of coaching staff at Invictus CrossFit. His years of experience at the highest level are matched by his ability to deliver complex coaching cues in a simple and accessible format. The seminar is the first ever in Scotland and represents a unique opportunity for the Scottish community and those from further afield to get exposure to one of the most basic but frequently undercoached technical elements of many CrossFit workouts. Over the weekend you can expect to learn: Correct rowing technique, as well as how to analyse and correct technical errors The physiology and kinesiology of rowing How to properly structure a CrossFit rowing workout for yourself and your members. How to maximize rowing power and efficiency, increasing rowing power output for better workout performance About the Concept2 indoor rowing machine, video analysis and participating in CrossFit rowing workouts The course is suitable for both coaches and athletes and there is no requirement to hold a Level 1 Trainer Certificate. This opportunity to learn appears very rarely and we are honoured to be the only UK facility to host the course in 2015. The price is around £260 after conversion from the dollar price. Book now to avoid disappointment.
